WildCard Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Alright everyone, let's get this going! I know many of you have met each other outside of SS, and many of you want to, so that's the goal here. Tom Webster has been generous enough to help me facilitate the issuing of the tickets, and I've devised a way on which we can fairly partition them. So, here's the plan. We have 16 tickets TW is able to provide and so it is up to us on deciding a date; the sooner we can decide, the easier this is for TW, so let's please get this thread rolling and be cooperative. The first part of this process is, obviously, choosing a date. Below is a link to the calendar http://sabres.nhl.com/club/calendar.htm Priority is to have one where the most people can attend. If we get lucky enough where we get to that point, we can worry about which games we would prefer. Once we choose a date too, I can fill you on how we're going to select the tickets; both who gets to come if there are too many people and who gets first pick We tried for the draft meetup, and not many could make it. Let's see if we can't get this going and really make this a cool event. The tickets are incredible, likely better than any you've had before. They are all very close to one another too.

Eleven Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I will try to do this, but I also will say that it would be easier to pick some random Thursday or Friday in November or something and have a happy hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) I think a Saturday game would probably be the best choice, or a Sunday game Edited June 27, 2016 by WildCard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I'm liking that last game vs the Leafs. Should be right in the thick of the playoff hunt, and that rivalry will be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I am in pretty much whatever the date. Can work around it at work. Friday would be the worst option, though. I have actually never been to a Leafs game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubkev Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I'd really like to try to do this. I'll have to take a couple of vacation days as I always work when every other person on earth is off, and because First Niagara Center is 4 hours and 21 minutes from my house, but I'd definitely like to make it up there for a game with you guys.

dudacek Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I'd like to go. It will involve a flight and time off work, For me it's more you guys pick a date and I will try to make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKnowPhysics Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 You know what we should do? Every week we should come back to this Applebees and sit at this table and have a family meal. And order the same stuff. And I would be delighted, TrueBlue, if you would accompany me to ballroom dancing on Tuesday nights. It's a lot fun. I think you'd have a good time.
